Photography exhibition HEAVY METAL Laurence Aberhart
03 Jul 2009  - 31 Jul 2009

Photography exhibition HEAVY METAL Laurence Aberhart
Of the fifty-six platinum prints Laurence Aberhart has released [over the period 1994–1997] we will exhibit fifteen during July.

Included are images from: New Zealand, Australia, Hong Kong, United Kingdom, France and Spain.

The process for making platinum prints was invented in 1873.

A negative made to exploit the platinum print process is pretty near useless for any other other print type. The chemistry involved in the making of such prints is complex.

The number of platinum prints the artist has derived from a negative ranges from one and seven. None have been produced since 1997, due to the non-availability of platinum paper.

Unlike the silver print process, platinum lies within the paper surface, while silver lies in a gelatin or albumen emulsion that coats the paper.

As a result the final platinum image is absolutely matte and the texture of whatever paper was used.

Metallic platinum is one of the most stable substances known, and as such the prints are as permanent as their paper base.

Platinum prints are valued for their great range of subtle tonal variations, What would appear to be black in another medium, in a platinum print can be seen as a profound expansion of subtle details.
